Can you charge a contractor for taking too long?

• <div><p>If a contractor is in breach of your contract, sometimes it is possible to collect damages for unreasonable delays. However, such claims can be expensive and difficult to prove. If there’s a way to complete the work and maybe negotiate for a discount for some of the inconvenience, that might be a simpler and cheaper way to resolve any disputes.</p></div>

What’s the difference between a handyperson and a contractor?

• <div><p>A contractor specializes in a specific field. They often operate in teams where they have subcontractors to handle specialized problems. So if you have significant plumbing, drywall, or roofing issues, you’ll want to hire a contractor, as the job may require a team.</p><p>A handyperson is typically one person who works on whatever jobs come their way. You wouldn’t call a contractor to fix the hinges on cabinets or paint your room. Instead, a handyperson can handle all these issues, saving you from making multiple phone calls.</p></div>

Should I tip my contractor?

• <div><p>Tipping contractors is not expected or required. However, consider <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/should-i-tip-my-remodeling-contractor.htm">tipping your remodeling contractor</a> if they exceed your expectations.</p></div>

I decided to make the purchase though I did not need all of the equipment. The TRITON 9000 RS Generator/Compressor/Welder machine was what I really had my eye on. I had never seen a machine with so many functions before. The 10,000 gas generator is the machine I needed the most, but the other...

I would not suggest any one use this business. They give false quotes to get you in the door and I wasn't happy with the service at all. I have had sets of nails last four weeks and still not pop off, they had to be taken off! They just took over this business in January and obviously they...

Tom arrived to do an estimate when he said he would and he was polite and professional. He made it clear that he might not get to my job for weeks because of a backlog of work. I was fine with that. He didn't give me a specific date when the tree would be cut down. In fact, he just showed up one...
